Like another poster said, GWB scored 1206 in his SAT - that is below the 80th percentile. An 80th percentile IQ score is 113 - it will not get you into Yale or Harvard unless you are both a legacy admit as well as a son of a millionaire.
- danieltillett 11y agoDon’t only the right hand side of the bell curve take the SAT [1]? Also hasn’t there been significant inflation in SAT scores over time [2]? 1. http://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d10/tables/dt10_154.asp http://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d10/tables/dt10_154.asp 2. http://www.ets.org/Media/Research/pdf/RR-02-04-Dorans.pdf http://www.ets.org/Media/Research/pdf/RR-02-04-Dorans.pdf Edit. This article is rather interesting [3]. I am not sure how much we can draw from SAT marks from along time ago other than GWB was not an idiot nor the smartest person at Yale. No dumb person is going to graduate from Yale even if they are a legacy student. 3. http://www.slate.com/articles/briefing/articles/2000/01/bill_bradleys_sat_scores.html http://www.slate.com/articles/briefing/articles/2000/01/bill...
